It is generally difficult to make money from a bearish market.
But it is not a loss unless you sell, hodling your assets is the best strategy.
Arbitrage trading is also a good option, as prices always differ on different exchanges.
The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

Not everyone but maybe 70% to 85% of all the investors and holders. Why I said that because there are many professional traders and brokers around and they might have read the outcome of cryptocurrencies this year and sold all of their coins before the crash happened. They might also lost some but I'm sure that their gains still dominates.
Bear market is always an opportunity for professional traders who simply have the swing strategy style of trading. It may be a bit hard for day traders to trade a volatile bear market which is why so many day traders rather prefer to stay clear the market during some periods than trying to trade the market at that point in time.
The bad thing however, is that a lot of people in the space trade with little or no knowledge, and for a bear market, that would be the worst for them to ever trade.

Most of the people really lose their money when the market is down. You can easily avoid these losses if you stop trading for some time, hold your cryptos and wait.
Of course, this is the plan of the big men, everyone loses money and they will be the people who take the money that people lose, stop trading or holding crypto still can not avoid the loss, losses always exist regardless of whether it is less or more. But this situation is not too bad, if we know the whale's plans, we can turn the disadvantages into advantages, use this opportunity to make more money according to different strategies

When the market fell many people see anxiety and cut their property losses. It is best to wait patiently for the market and bring the property to market

Not everyone loses money in decreasing market because there are some ways to make money like margin trading probably.
This's like the erroneous belief that the earth was flat and people feared of falling off until Ferdinard Magellan pointed the way forward. In the same vein, the fact that market have not been rallying these days does not mean the door has been shut to profit making. There is something called arbitrage - it does not depend on rising or falling market price , just movements in prices to net in some profit and also with USDT, you got a tool to short a falling crypto market.

Not all buddy and it is only those beginners in trading because they will probably lose their patience and start going on the flow of bear market but for professionals they are really earning big profits when in bearish because they know what they are doing

Yes and no. If you think about most of the people loses their money when the market is down then it is right. But think about when you have coins which you purchased at lower cost than even if the market down then you are in profit. If you purchase Bitcoin at the rate of 6500$ then now you sure in profit. Because now at the moment bitcoin goes over 7000$. But the market is still down. Unless it goes over 12000$ we can’t say that it going up.
Market cannot be down forever and it won’t be up forever as it is all these changes in the market between an uptrend and a downtrend that makes it what it is. If the market does not go down, it won't bring any chance to buy lower and if it does not go up, there would not be any chance to sell higher, so trading the fluctuations will not be possible.

Those who lose in a down market are those who do not have any trading knowledge at all and all they do is gamble, which makes them to actually be buying at a higher price, thinking they are buying lower, in the middle of a market that is being dumped.

I don't think everyone loses money, some people make money when they sell Bitcoin when the market is rising. And some people take this opportunity to buy Bitcoin and Altcoin at low prices. This is a good opportunity to buy more because it's very cheap compared to the price of the last few months.

This is right if you sell your coins when the market is down. But if you're still holding it, then no worries. Market price will recovers. We just can't tell when it gonna happens but for sure it will. Just stay calm, relax and hold your coins until the market price becomes stable.

It will depend upon the person what they are doing whether buying/selling . Because if you are buying when market is down then you will make money if not immediately but in coming time. But if you are selling when it is down and bought when market was high then yes you will end up in loss.

I think yes, iam also loss much money. I did some mistake in trading, when the price of crypto going down more than 50% i use new money to buy more coins but the price keep down. I did not use stop loss because iam was believe the price will going up. But i will not loss until i sell all that my coins, so now i wait for next bullish of crypto.
Except you are going long and buying the dips with few funds after another, trying to buy the dips as a trader is one silly mistake to ever make as you will be left frustrated and hanging if the market decides to keep going lower and you have completely run out of funds.
You should always have a good strategy before entering any trade and should as well have all it takes to make good calls when it comes to stopping loss and looking forward to buying back lower. Without this knowledge, you are going to be picking huge loss eventually.

For me not everyone loses when the market is down cause if you are a pro in trading or in the crypto market then you know how to earn already even when the market is down. There are many ways on how you can earn even the market is down or not.

I don't agree with that.
At the moment the market is down in theory you are in loss but if you wait long enough you can turn that into your favour. And of course everything depends on the price you got your Bitcoins.
Anyway, if you are smart and patient enough, if you have learned to read the signs on the market you can make profit even when the market is down.

I think that the answer to this question can actually be given in two different ways. That's why I want to explain the two reasons and why.

SELLERS: When prices are often down when sales are heavily traded, sales made at the outset of this retirement are always profitable. The reason for this is that you can get cash from the peak and buy with this cash at a lower price.

Buyers: Buying traders will also earn revenue during this period because purchases made at the bottom will be sold at much better prices during the next upturn. These investors are doing well, but these transactions require a lot of patience, time and good knowledge.

It all depends on how will see loss.  Some would say that as long as you have not sold your coin,  regardless of the price of your coin in the market,  you have not make any loss.  Some would argue otherwise and say you made loss if your coin are selling below your entry price in fiat!  You just need to pick trading school of thought that works for you and plan around it to maximises your chances!

Not everyone, people who doesn't analyze the market will encounter loss. In detail on analysis it is possible to find whether the price fall will continue or will get stopped. Based on this it is good to go with further buying or selling, this way can stay away from losses even when the market is down. Other options were trading and holding for the price pump.

The bearish showing of the market for major part of the year is alarming and worth noting. How could one explain the rationale behind the peak price of $19000  in 2017 only for the  bitcoin to be at the lowest point compare for some years  ago. The market value is not helping  anybody as the price will climb today and fall the next minutes. Bitcoin has tried to maintain $6000 and has been trading above the support level at $6087. If bitcoin has any issue and the market drops the same effect will happen to the altcoins to drops in value .

Those people who sell their coins at the lowest price are just new traders in the market since they did not have the good knowledge and they tend to sell their coins at the lowest price which makes them lose a huge amount of their investments.

I may not totally say yes cause some if us still gaining while the others are losing by then. We know that mostly people who have loss this time are those who are new in the world of crypto  and some take advantage on it buying their coins in cheap.

Everyone loses money if they chose to make panic selling during the market is down.But if we will be patient in waiting for the market condition to make a good increase,then we will gain profits instead of losing them.But i really admire those people who really knows how to gain profits even when the market is totally down.
